Re: Any White Zr1s Out There ..... ?

Thank you for sharing the picture. The picture and "Hiro" name recalled my good days which I had almost forgotten. If Hiro is Hiroshi Mitani, I remember him. I got acquaintance with him via one Japanese mailing list which was to discuss about American cars about 12 years ago. He was a very nice guy. When I met him, he told me about how Hiroshi blow Ferraris and Porsches away at the Tokyo Wan-gun highway with his ZR-1. They said that Hiroshi drove his ZR-1 crazy fast. I was deeply impressed with his story and his ZR-1. If I recall correctly, Hiroshi's ZR-1 was maroon red, not black as seen in your post, so the ZR-1 may be another Hiro"s:confused: Yoshifumi Honda 1991 ZR-1 |
Re: Any White Zr1s Out There ..... ?
GG you may be correct in the Hiro Z being a Dark Metallic Red.
If you look close at the cropped pic of the left corner it does hint of a red tint IMO. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...LEFTCORNER.jpg You can see the flash reflection in that corner that serves to really add a lot of light to that corner and resulting in the red hue/tint coming out. This Hiro photo is in the shade and not really that much sunlight on the ZR-1. Now here are some other ZR-1's that at night look to be black models. First a Dark Red Metallic http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...ETALLICRED.jpg For sale at this website >>> http://www.hnhcorvette.com/C4-Corvettes.htm Now a Dark Rose Metallic http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...RoseZR-1-2.jpg Finally my buddy Pete's Polo Green ZR-1 http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...r-1pete1-1.jpg All of these at night can look very much to be a black ZR-1. Even the 40th Ann. Editioon 93 ZR-1 looks to be Black at night Here is a 40th next to my ZR-1 http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...TE/theZs-1.jpg |
Re: Any White Zr1s Out There ..... ?
Now I will post my PHOTO magic thanks to Photoshop filtering to simulate evening photos
Now on this one we added brightness and less on contrast -- It almost looks brown rather than red but you can only do so much with the light adjustments. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...EFT-CORNER.jpg The Dark Red photo has so much bright sunlight we could not get it to go black with adjustments but we got close http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...TALLIC-RED.jpg Now the Dark Rose did go dark very well with adjustment even with the bright sunlight. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...-Rose-ZR-1.jpg And the Polo Green on the side did well again with bright sunlight the rear deck still shows green. http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...zr-1-pete1.jpg The 40th 93 still shows a hint of red - again the intense bright sunlight on the front http://i126.photobucket.com/albums/p...TE/theZs-2.jpg But I think you get my point if any of these were a "shadow" photo with the sun not being direct on the car like the Hiro photo it would be easy to make them all go "dark" with the bright/contrast adjustments in Photoshop. My conclusion is the Hiro ZR-1 may very well have been a Dark Red Metallic ZR-1 and the photo hides that fact because of the lack of direct sunlight and being a "shadow photo". |

I'm not sure if this is true or not since I had lost his phone# and address..:cry: By the way, you seems to use Photoshop right. I don't know much about Photoshop:confused: All I can do with Photoshop is to resize pictures and to "save as.." somewhat name:) |

Re: Any White Zr1s Out There ..... ?
I have a question about the Dark Rose Metallic ZR1. What brand and size rims are on your Corvette? The most beautiful C4 I have ever seen.
